Yes, we've been waiting for a look at Paul Andrew Williams' upcoming UK horror comedy The Cottage for a good while now. We're big fans of stars Andy Serkis and Reece Sheersmith - the latter of League of Gentlemen fame - and, frankly, the combination of blood and laughs is just one we enjoy. The stills look great, the set up is solid, the performers are strong, all we need now is a decent trailer to seal the deal and you can consider that delivered. The first trailer has just arrived at UK movie site Empire Online, it's a blood-soaked hysterically good time, and you'll find it below the break.
David and his youngest brother Peter arrive at a desolate cottage in the middle of the night. When Peter goes out to the car and opens the trunk we see an unconscious Tracey bound and gagged inside. Tracey is the daughter of underworld boss Arnie and they’ve kidnapped her for ransom. Not long afterwards a car appears at the cottage: it’s Andrew, the black-sheep brother of Tracey who is hoping the money they extort will allow him to leave his domineering father’s life for good. What none of them realize is that two of Arnie’s henchmen, the Oriental Thugs, have followed Andrew to the cottage. They are desperate to inflict pain on the kidnappers but Arnie tells them they have to wait patiently. However, they never anticipated having to deal with somebody lurking in the darkness: The Farmer. Who will survive and what will be left? And what are those scraping noises coming from under the trapdoor in the kitchen?!
AWESOME!!! I was very excited about "Severance" and the balance they managed between horror and comedy, although I know there are those that disagree. This trailer looks fantastic.
Why does the video stop at 3 seconds every time I try to load it?
the main page poster for this looked like the cover to an issue of The Goon for some reason,
anywho, the trailer was pretty cool,the slick editing really sold it
